Enhanced Small Target Detection via Multi-Modal Fusion and Attention Mechanisms: A YOLOv5 Approach

With the rapid development of information technology, modern warfare increasingly relies on intelligence, making small target detection critical in military applications. The growing demand for efficient, real-time detection has created challenges in identifying small targets in complex environments due to interference. To address this, we propose a small target detection method based on multi-modal image fusion and attention mechanisms. This method leverages YOLOv5, integrating infrared and visible light data along with a convolutional attention module to enhance detection performance. The process begins with multi-modal dataset registration using feature point matching, ensuring accurate network training. By combining infrared and visible light features with attention mechanisms, the model improves detection accuracy and robustness. Experimental results on anti-UAV and Visdrone datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and practicality of our approach, achieving superior detection results for small and dim targets.

MDAP: A Multi-view Disentangled and Adaptive Preference Learning Framework for Cross-Domain Recommendation

Cross-domain Recommendation systems leverage multi-domain user interactions to improve performance, especially in sparse data or new user scenarios. However, CDR faces challenges such as effectively capturing user preferences and avoiding negative transfer. To address these issues, we propose the Multi-view Disentangled and Adaptive Preference Learning (MDAP) framework. Our MDAP framework uses a multiview encoder to capture diverse user preferences. The framework includes a gated decoder that adaptively combines embeddings from different views to generate a comprehensive user representation. By disentangling representations and allowing adaptive feature selection, our model enhances adaptability and effectiveness. Extensive experiments on benchmark datasets demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art CDR and single-domain models, providing more accurate recommendations and deeper insights into user behavior across different domains.
